Videoconv is a shell-enhanced software that acts as an interface to mpeg-tools, transcode, vcdimager, and cdrdao. It allows users to convert videos easily.
One great feature of Videoconv is its ease of use. Designed with novice users in mind, the software is simple to operate, even for those with little to no video conversion experience. The interface is straightforward and easy to navigate, making it a great choice for anyone looking to quickly and easily convert their videos.
To get started with Videoconv, you will need to ensure you have several helpful tools installed on your computer. These include mjpegtools for converting, transcode for DIVX options, and any videocodecs you want to use with transcode such as divx5, opendivx, and xvid. Additionally, you will need vcdimager for certain functions and cdrdao for burning.
While not mandatory, other useful tools to have on hand include divx4linux, libdvdcss2, libdvdread, libfame, win32-codecs, and xvid. Versions of these tools may be higher than what is required by Videoconv.
Recently, Videoconv underwent an update that improved the quality of the generated videos. The software also added support for multipass encoding with divx and PCB-menu support for VCD and SVCD with vcdxgen. Additionally, the software fixed an error with the vcdmenuecreation by changing $ to * for the wildcard in the vcdxgen part. Lastly, an option -x was added to transcode to allow for improved autodetection of some avifiles. Overall, Videoconv is a reliable, easy-to-use software solution for anyone looking to convert and burn videos in a variety of formats.
